After using a Harmony universal remote you will wonder how you were ever able to live without one. The Harmony remote takes the place of all your remotes without sacrificing anything. In fact, the Harmony is so customizable, that you may never need to break out those old remotes again.
Set up made simple. You connect your Harmony remote to your computer and enter in some specifics about your components, then answer some questions about how you use your TV, DVD, etc. The programming interface has been updated, it used to be web based, and is now a stand-alone application. You can add your components and set up “Activities” to control how everything works together. For instance, when you watch TV maybe you need your TV turned on and set to video 1, your AV receiver set to video 2, and your cable box on. Even the most complex systems are easy to program.
Easy to use. After you program the remote, just press one of the four “Activity” buttons and your Harmony Remote automatically sets your entertainment system in motion. From watching TV to listening to your CD player, the process is fully automated. Once your finished, just press the off button and all your components are powered down.
Help is just a click away. The Harmony’s Help system can troubleshoot problems as you use it. Say one of your components does not turn on or change to the correct input when you push an “Activity”. Just push the help button, and it will back through al the steps needed until it finds where the problem was.
Keep up to date. The Harmony remote uses a inline database of components to control your entertainment system. This means your DVD player or TV will always be updated once new or improved remote codes come out.
Whether you are an entertainment system junkie or just want the convenience of one remote, the Harmony is for you.
